Overture for Timpani - for solo timpani

Kirk J. Gay

Written for five drums in "overture" form, Overture for Timpani by Kirk J. Gay is an exciting recital piece to showcase the technique and musicianship of the timpanist. With a dramatic and lyrical opening, the overture bursts into its main "allegro" theme which leads to melodic, energetic, and technical phrases requiring various pedalings and cross-over stickings.Overture for Timpani is currently on the group 1 solo list for the Florida Bandmasters Association. This piece comes as a professionally bound folio.
